The problem is the camera you recorded with is slightly out of spec compared to the camera you are playing back with. Try getting a better deck for playback or the original camera you recorded with. The more expensive DV decks have better error correction and should solve your issue. You might have to go all the way up to a DSR-2000 if the error in the recording is severe.

What you are experiencing is correct. The Canon HDV 24F and 30F only records 24 and 30 Frames to tape.
Very similar to HVX200 24PN mode. They did this to save bandwidth and make it look better. This is what is unique to Canon and why Sony doesn’t play tapes recorded in HDV 24F and 30F from Canon. Sony is starting to release cameras which record HDV 24 frame footage like DV 24 frame footage.Daniel Epstein

On another board someone said P2 Log did help as well as importing from disk instead of P2 Directly

I heard of this from someone else. They were having trouble with Final Cut 5.1.2. It seemed to be a problem which had cropped up with a newer version of the software. This didn’t happen with 5.04 which he had on another machine. I don’t know if you can backslush but it might be worth a try re installing from disc and not upgrade. Also there is a new version just out 5.1.4 which might fix this if you have the same issue

You should be able to use the HV10 as you described. You don’t nee the Kona or Black Magic card for digitizing but might want it for monitoring. HTH

Don,
I think you are inccorrect about the Canon GOP Vs the Sony. They are the same 15 GOP in 60i. In 24 F and 30 F Canon chose to record only the frames they needed but they are still using a 15 frame GOP as far as I know. JVC uses two different GOPs for their versions of HDV. I think one is a 6 GOP for 24P/30P and the new 60P is a 12 GOP. Canon’s implementation of 24F/30F in HDV was superior to Sony’s original Cinemode but may be similar in motion to Sony’s newest camcorder which has 24P. Canon’s pictures may still be better than Sony ‘s but I haven’t had time to test them.Daniel Epstein

I believe the HDSDI on the XLH1 is only 60i. The camera records the HDV 24F but the HDSDI doesn’t come out that way. If you can take the firewire out of the camera you can get the 24 frame signal. HTH

Traditionally there has been a technique used to bias how much of the light is sent to each channel from the Beam Splitter prism to a cameras RGB sensors. Green receives the most light since it is the predominant Luminance value as well. Red gets the most of the remainder while blue receives the least. If you look at a camera with component outs you will see the green is the cleanest, the red is second, and the blue a distant third. All of this happens before the compression into a Codec begins. Not all colors are recreated equally.

Funny I just droppped off my DVX-100A at Nivie for repair. Maybe they confused Digital Cameras with Digital camcorders over the phone. They certainly didn’t give me any reason to think they wouldn’t service my camcorder.
